Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Cambridge United FC and Ipswich Town FC is underway.
  • 5' Ipswich Town FC have won 470 goals from 358 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Cameron Humphreys suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 20' Nathan Broadhead is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Ipswich Town FC tonight.
  • 24' GOAL! Harvey Knibbs scores on 24.
  • 29' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 31' That is a Yellow card for Ipswich Town FC. George Edmundson will be fuming at that decision.

  • 46' Lee Evans makes way for Marcus Harness at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from Ipswich Town FC.
  • 51' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. George Edmundson made 14 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 54' Freddie Ladapo doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 59' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 64' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 69' Conor Chaplin has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 70' The Cambridge United FC manager makes a substitution. Lloyd Jones departs to be replaced by George Williams.
  • 73' George Hirst is replacing Conor Chaplin for the Ipswich Town FC side.
  • 78' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 81' Another substitution for Cambridge United FC to replace Joe Ironside by Shilow Tracey on 81 minute.
  • 86' Cambridge United FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
